3801 TELEGRAPH | OAKLAND

 

Taking cues from the evolving neighborhood of industry and commerce, this multi-family apartment building riffs on the classic warehouse style, but with multiple lines, levels, and articulations to add texture and interest to a space-maximizing design. Accent awnings, and contrasting walls of wood and stucco, create interest and keep the building from dominating lower neighboring structures. A majority-studio apartment floor plan and nearby public transit accommodate traveling professionals and other car-free lifestyles.

Highlights include:

  • Ground-floor four micro-retail spots plus a café with coworking spaces

  • Shared roof deck on 7th floor with west view of the city

  • Communal rear courtyard includes fitness equipment and bike storage

  • Mostly studio apartments, with 2BR’s on the corner
